Unknown over Bay Center, WA

The report, as filed

Early on the morning of Thursday, July 23rd, 2015, I was house sitting in a rural area of Pacific County, WA, and had gone to bed. Lying facing the window with my eyes closed, I could see light coming in the window. Figured it was a car coming up the road, not totally unheard of, even out there. I realized I did not hear an engine, though, and the light barely fluctuated, so I got up to look. What I saw made me grab my glasses so I could see clearly. Returning to the window, I saw two large white lights, about the size of the full moon, perhaps a bit smaller, quite a ways apart (perhaps 100 feet or so), traveling very slowly from W/NW to E/SE, in a descending manner, behind a stand of trees. When the white lights were behind trees, I could see red lights (much smaller than the white ones, maybe double the size of Venus), none of them flashing. The only sound I heard was similar to a lone passenger car out on the highway, about half a mile away. It was very quiet, and descending into an area that is nothing but marshland. After I could no longer see it, I just sat staring at the window. I saw no further activity, no other occurrences. I have seen things before, but never this big, or this close. I remained awake, unable to sleep, for at least another 3 hours. It was very dark out there, being rural, without exterior lights, and cloudy that night, so I could not see anything but the lights themselves. The following day, I let the dogs out, and they went into the gully that leads to the marsh. When they returned, the black lab suddenly stuck by my side and would not leave me, she HAD to be touching me, though this only lasted about an hour. I did not report it elsewhere, to police or media. I did not go into the marsh myself. I did not get photos or videos of the object, but I did take pics of the area, and via Google Earth, to give you an idea of the area. The case has been shared with Mr. James E. Clarkson, MUFON State Director for Washington State, who has offered to follow up on it, and perhaps perform an investigation. PD
